Oh. My Gawd. I fit everything in that list, apart from being incontinent. (but that'll probably arrive soon, knowing my bloody luck)Kev L wrote:they realised that owners of red storms are likely to be incontinent, dribbley older folk who will need carrying capacity to visit the post office to get their pensions and down to the chemist to fill their scripts and carry their meds
I own a red storm. I'm retired through medical reasons and DO get my pension at the Post Office. Also, the Banff Post Office and Chemist are run by the same shop. (in the same building), so, after collecting me pittance, I go up the steps to the Chemist, where I leave with half their stock each time, including Asthma inhalers, diabetes needles, insulin and tablets, disposable sharps bins, painkillers, valium to relax the muscle cramps in the legs, a large bottle of pink indigestion liquid stuff (and a par-tri-idge in-a-pear-treeeee).
It all fills 3 bags, and people have to wait ages till I fill out each individual prescription sheet. I'm telling you, if I was a horse, they'd have shot me years ago.

So, erm, yer spot on. I need me a set of panniers like these Beetle Bags after all! - One side can carry my medication, and the other side can carry my (soon to be) incontinence pads!!
"We hear GBM is touring abroad on his VTR, is that true?"
"Erm, no. He said he was incontinent...not, on the Continent."
